we all know it's wrong... but do you encourage it...?? my friends are planning to wait one week until te pirated version hits the stands... their logic is... 'JKR has too much money already!'

sure... we're all gonna say that 'it's wrong'.. 'it should be discouraged' and stuff... but the reality remains that sometimes book prices go over the top... they get exhorbitant... what bout readers who aren't willing to invest THAt kinda cash for a one-time or max 2-3-time read?

the piracy industry THRIVES off this very section of readers/consumers!

think about it and let me know what you think.

In Pakistan, where I went one month after the book released, there were pirated books everywhere. The original copies cost around twice of the cost here. But there's much less of that feeling you get when opening the book...

that's true jink... there's no difference between reading an original and a pirated edition... the excitement and fun remain the same...😆

but it's kinda unfair to the author...
